DIKIRI AND TRIKIRI (Gr. "set of two and three candles") is a set of set of two candleholders, one double-branched candlestick and another triple-branched, both used by the bishop in blessing at the liturgy. The Dikirotrikera, as well as the altar fans, are also kept in the sanctuary.
Description: This is a brand new gold-plated Dikirotrikera (set of dikiri and trikiri). The DIKERON or DIKIRI (approx. dimensions: 11" in height; diameter at the base is 4 1/3"; diameter of candles is 7/8") is the candlestick that holds two candles (double candleholder). The two candles remind us of the two natures of Christ, the divine and the human.
